Forgot to mention- I re-cabled with Alligator iLink, 4mm for the brakes and mini-iLink for the gears, and it was a pleasure to use.
Getting the liner threaded through was the only slight irritant, but being able to shorten/lengthen/test/repeat until cable lengths were spot on was great.
I can also now add some links to the cables when I change the bars again- which is undoubtedly going to happen during my ongoing search for the right set.
Shifting felt considerably more "crisp", brakes felt much as before- which was very good to start off with. Real test will be on the carbon rims, as i've done most of my mileage on those and I was on the Open Pro's for my test ride.
